If you’re planning to take part in the auction of this legendary car, which starts at 55 million euro (you read that right), you’ll probably need a hearing aid to go with it. This extremely noisy racing car, with its free-flowing exhaust outlet directly at cockpit level, had ended up deafening one of the designers of its coupé version, the German engineer Uhlenhaut. The model presented by RM Sotheby’s boasts a dizzying pedigree, having taken Fangio and Sir Stirling Moss to victory on numerous occasions. This rarity has been jealously preserved for 60 years by the same collector, the owner of the Indianapolis circuit, and is likely to shatter many records.
